> Hi, my name is Amy Hubbard and I am a student at Beloit College in
> WIsconsin. As part of my Museum Studies class we are doing an annotated
> bibliography assignment and need 8 sources. Unfortunatley, since my topic
> is sort of specific I am having trouble locating many of the books! My
> grangfather, Lee Parsons, was a South AMerican archaeologist who did
> several rubbings of some now fairly deteorated sites. Unfortunately, he
> kept them in his home and his cigarette-smoking stained some of the
> rubbings beyind recognizability. Upon his death, my family was given the
> rubbings and are still trying to decide what to do with them. So, I
> decided to do my annotated bibliography research on removing tarry residues
> caused by cigarette smoke, or even residue caused by fires. It does not
> specifically have to be the removal from rubbings, but I would like to try
> to stick within the realms of linen, textile, or wool cloth or rubbings or
> whatever. And just so you know, I am NOT going to try to clean the
> rubbings myself.. you may think this is a strange comment, however,
> several of the conservators I contacted never answered any of my questions
> and always mentioned at the end of their e-mails that I should not attempt
> to clean them myself. WEll, don't worry guys.... I wouldn't even dream of
> it. If anyone has an idea please let me know! Thanks, Amy
